I was recently awarded a ‘Top Viewed’ as well as ‘Top Pick’ award regarding an article I had written on Architectural Renderings from Google Knol. I had written the article and posted it to my main graphics forum, where others began to read it. It quickly made the Internet circuit gracing some of the top architecture sites found on the web and the traffic to it exploded. While I’m not one to boast about ‘accomplishments’, having these awards lets me know that I’m not too far off base from my assessments.

Over the course of the last month, I received hundreds of emails from people thanking me for having written this article. In some ways, I think it accurately describes the difficulties and tribulations that other artists encounter. It also gives them some insight into how I started and continue to operate my business.

If you’re an architect, student who is looking to possibly get into the architectural rendering field, or a budding artist trying to build up your work – I would recommend reading this article. It’s a bit long, but I tried to cover most of the bases in having written it.

As always, please let me know if you found this article interesting or useful.
